The Princely Family today

Although today the Princely Family views itself as a modern entrepreneur family, beyond its economic activity, it also considers itself obliged to contribute to the historical and cultural identity of its region.

Nowadays the fate of Castle Bentheim is in the hands of the Hereditary Prince Carl Ferdinand of Bentheim and Steinfurt, who was born in 1977. Since 2007 he has been married to Hereditary Princess Elna-Margret of Bentheim and Steinfurt.
